This pull request adds explicit installation instructions to the README to improve the onboarding experience for new users.
While this project is a great and comprehensive Funge interpreter, the installation process was not straightforward for newcomers. Previously, users needed to inspect the source code and do trial and error to get the tool running. The new instructions make setup simpler.
The commands have been tested on Ubuntu 20.04.
